Precautions for safety
The manufacturer shall not assume any liability for the damage caused
by not observing the description of this manual.
General
• Carefully read Owner’s Manual before starting the air conditioner.
There are many important things to keep in mind for daily operation.
• Ask for installation to be performed by the dealer or a professional.
Only a Qualified installer (*1) is able to install an air conditioner. If a
non-qualified person installs an air conditioner, it may result in
problems such as fire, electric shock, injury, water leakage, noise and
vibration.
• Do not use any refrigerant different from the one specified for
complement or replacement. Otherwise, abnormally high pressure
may be generated in the refrigeration cycle, which may result in a
failure or explosion of the product or an injury to your body.
• Do not install the air conditioner in a place where the operation sound
of the outdoor unit may cause a disturbance. (Especially at the
boundary line with a neighbor, install the air conditioner while
considering the noise.)
• This appliance is intended to be used by expert or trained users in
shops, in light industry, or for commercial use by lay persons.
Transportation and storage
• To transport the air conditioner, wear shoes with protective toe caps,
protective gloves, and other protective clothing.
• To transport the air conditioner, do not take hold of the bands around
the packing carton. You may injure yourself if the bands should break.
• Before stacking the packing cartons for storage or transportation,
heed the precautions written on the packing cartons. Failure to heed
the precautions may cause the stack to collapse.
• The air conditioner must be transported in stable condition. If any part
of the product broken, contact your dealer.
• When the air conditioner must be transported by hand, carry it by two
or more people.
WARNING
Installation
• Only a Qualified installer (*1) or Qualified service person (*1) is
allowed to carry out the electrical work of the air conditioner. Under
no circumstances must this work be done by an unqualified individual
since failure to carry out the work properly may result in electric
shocks and/or electrical leaks.
• After the installation work has been completed, have the installer
explain about the circuit breaker positions. In the event that trouble
has occurred in the air conditioner, set the circuit breaker to the OFF
position, and contact a service person.
• If the unit is installed in a small room, take appropriate measures to
prevent the refrigerant from exceeding the limit concentration even if
it leaks. Consult the dealer from whom you purchased the air
conditioner when you implement the measures. Accumulation of
highly concentrated refrigerant may cause an oxygen deficiency
accident.
• Do not install the air conditioner in a location that may be subject to a
risk of expire to a combustible gas. If a combustible gas leaks and
becomes concentrated around the unit, a fire may occur.
• Use the company-specified products for the separately purchased
parts. Use of non-specified products may result in fire, electric shock,
water leakage or other trouble. Have the installation performed by a
professional.
• Confirm that earthing is performed correctly.
Operation
• Before opening the intake grille of the indoor unit or service panel of
the outdoor unit, set the circuit breaker to the OFF position. Failure to
set the circuit breaker to the OFF position may result in electric
shocks through contact with the interior parts. Only a Qualified
installer (*1) or Qualified service person (*1) is allowed to remove the
intake grille of the indoor unit or service panel of the outdoor unit and
do the work required.
• Inside the air conditioner are high-voltage areas and rotating parts.
Due to the danger of electric shocks or of your fingers or physical
objects becoming trapped in the rotating parts, do not remove service
panel of the outdoor unit. When work involving the removal of these
parts is required, contact a Qualified installer (*1) or a Qualified
service person (*1).
• Do not move or repair any unit by yourself. Since there is high voltage
inside the unit, you may get electric shock when removing the cover
and main unit.
